Spark knows people. But how well does he know Bill Self and his mindset after federal probes, suspensions, and 20 years of unreasonably high expectations?

Zero percent. Spark said so.

After federal probes, suspensions, heart issues, and 20 years of unreasonable expectations despite phenomenal results, there is a ZERO percent chance Self would depressurize or even entertain returning to Illinois. I KNOW this because I fucking know people. And I talk to them. Ok?

Some day you'll stumble into arguing against something I didn't very specifically clarify that I didn't mean in my very last post.

Imagine having a discussion with someone and saying "I'm pretty specifically not saying there's NO chance, but that the chance is so small it's not really worth discussing" and immediately they respond with two posts saying "ZERO CHANCE, HE SAID SO".

Absolutely could not make it up.  You're remarkably bad at this given how much experience you have.

Question for Spark. Do you think Self would be “flattered” if UNC reached out to him?

No way Self could be “flattered,” and definitely not “super flattered” by Illinois reaching out to him. Zero percent chance. I know and talk to people.

Yes because 1% is way beyond the pale. Dude, 1%?! Be reasonable! It’s more like 1/10th of 1%!

Okay, you're doing the "attributing a quote to you that directly contradicts something you actually posted" thing on purpose now, right?

Like within seconds you apparently intentionally misrepresent every single post I make.

Correct.  If you think there's a 1% chance Self says yes you're massively overstating the chances.

Imagine that 0/100 and 1/100 mean different things.  What a strange world that must be to live in.

What? You say I’m not saying a zero percent chance, but 1% is laughable. What am I getting wrong here? This is so fucking bizarre.

And again, the original point of contention was that Self might actually have an ounce or two of humility in him and be “flattered” fo hear from Illinois. JFC

1 isn’t greater than zero? Is that what you’re saying?

Are 0% and 1% the same?

The chances Self agrees to come back here are almost surely between those two numbers.  Quite a bit closer to 0% than 1% is smart money.

I have never said one single word about Self's humility or lack thereof, never met the guy.  You made that talking point up completely out of thin air.  Like you have most of your talking points today, and for the last decade.
